Sitapur Beach is the best spot to watch the sunrise on Neil Island. The sunrise was a gorgeous sight. The shades of the skies kept changing with different tones of teal and orange. I can never forget those moments I had while watching it. I can still relive them when I close my eyes. Sunrise and sunset happen quite sooner at the islands. So it's best to be at the beach an hour before sunrise. The lush green trees on the side of the beach offer travelers the opportunity to unwind and relish the serenity and nature's charm. I was at Neil Island for two days, and I visited this beach on both days. If you arrive early at the beach, you'll see the sand to be like a clean slate without any human footprints because of the high tide cycle. There are so many beautiful spots on the beach to capture some interesting photos. You can't swim here because it's a rocky beach. You would end up hurting yourself if you're not careful while walking on the rocks. My humble request to travelers is to not take any dead corals from the beach. You can't carry them through the security at the airport anyway. The beach was maintained well. I hope tourists help preserve the beach along with the locals. Parking is free at the beach. If you're driving, make sure you memorize the roads or drive using offline maps. I lost my way and ended up in Bharatpur Village on the first day. Be sure to have a full tank of petrol in your vehicle because the beach is a long way from the petrol bunk. I had an awesome time watching the sunrise here. I would definitely visit this beach...
